If you only used the market phase to judge which way to enter. You use price action for support and resistance along with trendlines to enter and exit the market. if you read individual candles and not the patterns. if you did ONLY this to trade the forex market could you succeed at this?

I do use support and resistance with no indicators at all, however reading only individual candles would literally hide the whole picture - why wouldn't I do that? Is that a rhetorical question, or is it indeed the way you trade?

I'm not sure that is even possible. It's like running with closed eyes.

I like to gamble. All in EUR/USD!!!!

There are risk-lovers and there are risk-haters, but the best traders will take the risk as long as they get paid for it.

So if you look at one candle at a time? Even when I play two up once a year I wait for the forth flip to put my $5 on the line. For me (this week) it's trending towards price action looking for three one set up. Google price action and spend the week on it. We are in the new traders section and I'm very much a new trader. Look at what the experience people are saying.

What information would you extract from one candle? When you're trying to solve a problem, the more information you have, the easier it would be to get to the solution. Therefore, you should look back on several time-frames to get the full picture.

Just my 2c.
